1974 BMW 2002 Turbo Rare

This stunning car has been in my possession for seven years. You can read all about it at the bottom of this page. It comes with the rare 5 speed dog leg. It starts and runs perfectly. The car originated in Italy and then UK before being shipped to the US. The owner before me had done a through body and paint job. It wears staggered Dunlop Direzza IIs 205 and 190/50R15 on period Alpina rims. The tires have about 800 miles on them. It has covered about 3000 trouble free miles since the motor rebuild. The turbo runs strong, all gears engage solid. The car needs nothing and everything works.
It is a solid chassis with no rust on the bottom of the car as you can see in the pictures. There are four things that keep if from being perfect and are in the picturess. There are two tiny bubbles that appeared this year on the bottom of passenger door, a line showing on the back of drivers side tail, a cracked in the dash and a small crack in the air dam. I was not successful in finding a replacement dash, the other three blemishes are surface and can be fixed for under 2K. I do have the no where to be found factory original stripes for the air dam as well as driver's side.
It is fully tuned up with valves adjusted and all fresh fluids and radiator flush.
